Argentina and Nigeria will play on Wednesday in their final group game of the World Cup.

Argentina have gained a maximum six points from their opening two games, although they have struggled to those wins and their performances have not been entirely convincing. They will hope to hit some better form today, and they may need to against a tough Nigeria team who still have work to do to guarantee their qualification for the knock out rounds.

The game is scheduled to kick off at 12 p.m. EST and can be watched on TV on ESPN. The game should also be available to watch online through live stream – free for subscribers – via the link provided below.

Nigeria have four points from their two games, having defeated Bosnia, but only managing a draw against Iran.

That means Iran still have a chance of leapfrogging Nigeria into second spot to steal away a Last 16 spot.

If Nigeria lose against Argentina and Iran defeat Bosnia then Iran would end up on four points like Nigeria, and it would go down to goal difference between the two teams.

Nigeria have lose all three previous World Cup games they've had against Argentina – all those games have come in the group stages of the World Cup.

Argentina have also won 11 of their last 14 World Cup group games, scoring a massive 27 goals and conceding just 5. They will be favorites to win today and finish their group stages with a maximum nine points.
